Infield remains unchanged

At this pace, Adrian Gonzalez, Tadahito Iguchi, Khalil Greene and Kevin Kouzmanoff will have one thing in common at the end of the season -- 162 games.

For the 15th straight game, the Padres infield is unchanged as San Diego prepares to take on the slow-starting Colorado Rockies at Petco Park.

Going into tonight's game, the only Padres infielder who has missed as much as an inning is Iguchi, who came out of the Padres 11-1 loss in Los Angeles on Saturday. Callix Crabbe finished that game.

While the Padres are going with the same lineup for a second straight night, the Rockies inserted center fielder Ryan Spilborghs at the top of their order. Spilborghs homered last year off Padres starter Justin Germano. He is 10-for-33 at Petco Park and 15-for-51 lifetime against the Padres with two homers and 10 RBI.
